Early Connections Matter
Leverage Peer Ambassadors & Alumni Stories
Word of mouth is the biggest tool you have for inspiring prospective students to choose your school. Give them the chance to ask questions, join discussions, and connect with both current undergraduates and the right alumni. Authentic interactions build trust, provide insight into campus life, and increase the likelihood of enrollment.
By supporting early connections for prospective students through PeopleGrove, one flagship public university saw a 3.23x increase in year-over-year deposits.
Belonging Before Day One
Bring Them Into Your Community
The game for capturing a prospective student’s attention starts long before the first day of class. Create digital and in-person spaces where admitted students can connect with peers, faculty, and affinity groups. When students feel part of your community, they’re more excited to enroll and less likely to melt.
Clarity on Career Paths
Showcase Outcomes With Our Academic & Career Survey
Some students know exactly what they want to major in while others have ideas, but no clear path. With PathwayU by PeopleGrove, prospective students answer questions about their interests, values, and more to connect their career aspirations to possible majors and degree programs.
When students can see where your institution can take them professionally, they’re more confident in their choice to enroll. At a small liberal arts college struggling with matriculation, 77% of undecided students converted to applicants after taking the PathwayU assessment.
